    Yes, travel insurance is a must.
    That's not say all travel insurance provides the cover that would be needed in the case above.

    Looking for the cheapest is not the optimum strategy.
    Read the policy first.

    Take a look at your policy details Michael, would it cover the case outlined in the story above ?

    Are there any age restrictions ? Medical restrictions etc ?

    Some people have had problems with 'free' travel insurance that they got with their bank account when they had to claim, I think because they had not disclosed certain medical conditions, but then you've never filled in an application form for it
